Forever Marilyn
''Forever Marilyn'' is a giant statue of Marilyn Monroe designed by Seward Johnson. The statue is a representation of one of the most famous images of Monroe, taken from the 1955 film ''The Seven Year Itch''. Inaugurated in July 2011, the statue stood at Pioneer Court in Chicago, Illinois, before it was moved to Palm Springs, California in 2012. The statue was given a farewell sendoff during Palm Springs Village Fest on March 27, 2014, to be displayed at an exhibition honoring Seward in New Jersey.
==Design and location==
The sculpture, manufactured of painted stainless steel and aluminium, is a super-sized sculptural tribute to Marilyn Monroe's iconic scene from Billy Wilder's 1955 infidelity comedy, ''The Seven-Year Itch'', with the figure imitating the instant that a blast of air raises her white dress.〔(Monumental statue of Marilyn Monroe ). Art Media Agency. July 19, 2011. Accessed October 2, 2011.〕 It was built in New Jersey, before being transported to Pioneer Court—part of the Magnificent Mile section of Michigan Avenue in Chicago.〔Roeper, Richard.

In May 2012, ''Forever Marilyn'' was moved from Pioneer Court to the corner of Palm Canyon Drive and Tahquitz Canyon Way in Palm Springs, California. In July 2013, P.S. Resorts announced that The Sculpture Foundation, owners of ''Forever Marilyn'', would move the statue to New Jersey for a May through September 2014 exhibit honoring Johnson at the 42-acre Grounds For Sculpture.〔(Grounds For Sculpture Johnson Retrospective )〕 PS Resorts, a local tourism organization, is working on plans to acquire the statue from The Sculpture Foundation so that it can be returned to Palm Springs for permanent display.
